Please, please - where did you get that light fixture over the dining room table?! It's fabulous, and so is your dining room!

Beautiful! Could you tell me the name and brand of the wall color?

And the art / mirror on the mantle (OK not dining room, but it's still intriguing) -- what is that and where did you get it?

Nice colors. I love the window seat and using that adorable baby picture must count as a cheat! : )

Thank you so much for the nice comments:)

The light fixture came from a local antique shop, the owner told me that she picked it up in a Florida estate sale.

The wall color is Summerdale Gold.

There is actually a piece of stained glass on the mantel. My husband used to make exact replicas of Frank Lloyd Wright designs. That one is the Tryptich Window from the Avery Coonley Playhouse.

This is a pretty room in a style that goes so well with the architecture of the house. You'd get more votes if you painted it purple and lime, but it's really better you didn't!

I don't understand what everyone is talking about - I like the jaunty angle. Way to live dangerously!
